The mustang horse
The mustang horse is a popular horse that is recognized by many as a living and breathing symbol of the influential and cowboy spirit of the Old wild west.
Although Mustangs are often called 'wild' horses, the more correct name is 'feral' horses as almost all free-roaming horses living in The u.s. are related to horses that were originally domesticated horses shipped over to America by the colonists.
In most cases, these foreign horses were of Andalusian or Arab stock, but included all conceivable colours and many people breeds.
A few of these independent horses went wild or were stolen by the indigenous inhabitants, and rapidly spread right through the whole of america
